    Half of the modern history of the entire East Asia is the history of the displacement of ordinary people. The turbulent parting and suffering experienced by ordinary people, all countries have bitter tears, and the people of East Asia have something in common on this point. The film focuses on the life of little people in the context of history. Lost from the Korean battlefield, mining in West Germany, Vietnam War, looking for relatives. A boy lives his life for the promise his father made...

    Based on several major nodes experienced in the life of the little man: the retreat of Xingnan, the miners in West Germany, and the labor service in the Vietnam War, the whole film is connected in series, showing the burden of a man, the continuation of a family, and the resilience of a nation. Thinking about people from a few decades ago, they were really able to endure hardship. Now they say they are too tired to work overtime, and they have never experienced the real "hardship". As soon as...

    Koreans' civilian epic, the time span is so large, the makeup and art special effects are all advantages and disadvantages, and the editing also took some thought. Although the irresistible sensational points are particularly touching, the miserable and too much humor is too cold, making such a big subject appear petty. Compared to other actors, the role of Huang Zhengmin's patriarch, who has changed his name and doesn't know how to pronounce it, is still very good, and he can be pro-American...

    I thought it was a film about the international financial war... At the end, I sat alone in the room and said, "Father, life is too hard." I can't do it... I have to find some happy film to watch, I cry every day......

    The beginning is the shadow of Forrest Gump and the two movies in 2012. Until two-thirds of the way, Huang Zhengmin came back from the Vietnam War to persuade his wife who had quarreled with others. All the previous accumulations have made sense. Brothers and sisters recognize each other, but the straightforward narrative style of Korean films deeply moved me and subverted...

    A few thoughts after watching it

    I have to say that the quality of Korean movies is really high... I just cried after watching "International Market"

    Whether it is the switching of the storyline, the logical connection between the front and the back, or even the handling of the details, it can be seen that the director's attentive...

    Unexpected, reasonable.

    Reasonable

    Korean-type movies can always hit the weakest part of the heart, and always find the right lens to express the most realistic image of the characters. It is rare to see the reflection and presentation of historical events in the film. However, "International Market" restores a large...
